just buy some bulk chain from Lowe's and they have clips that are like the clip on a dog leash, only it's one on each end. so clip one to your belt and the other end to the chain. shouldn't be more than $10 tops.

You have the most ecclectic lifting schedule...it doesn't seem to follow a pattern?

Here's my bodymass: 5'7", 205, with a 13:30 2 mile runtime - the Army loves me and tries to say I have to lose 30 pounds to be at the "optimal screening weight". They can eat me.

Got a couple questions for you. My workout partner and I are having to quit doing a couple exercises due to injuries. Unfortunately we had to stop doing preachers and decline bar. Our preacher workout was this:

95 x 10
100 x 10
105 x 10
110 x 10 (or 115 depending on the day)

The problem on the preachers was that our (both of us) ligaments in our forearms were screaming bloody murder! Couldn't even rest my arms on the edge of a table. We were using the regular sissy bar on the inner grip. Have anything like this happen to you?

And on to decline bar. Workout was this:

135 x 10
225 x 5
245 x 5
275 x 5
295 x 5
315 x 5

And holy shit did we strain the ligaments in the top, inner chest, on the clavicles. The pecs seemed to be fine, on a regular flat bench, it didn't hurt until the last 2-3 inches at the top. It was just strange. Ever have this happen?

We've sworn off both preachers and decline, as much as I hate to. I was getting great results - sizewise - on the preachers, and its fun to throw 3 biscuits on each side and go to town on decline. So much for that. I've never had this happen before. Maybe its because I'm 30 now, and structurally my body can't take that much weight. I hope not. Oh, and obviously we're doing more than these two exercises, but I didn't feel like posting the whole routine. Let me know what you think.

that happens to me after doing preachers for awhile. i usually take 6 months off from them and try to keep it to dumbells and i'm usually good after that.

not inner, but outer and shoulders. don't know what to tell you. try taking it easy for 6 months or so and see if that helps.
